Living Rock Growth- 2013

Another time-lapse of my Lithops plant growing earlier this Spring. I snapped a shot just about every day for 2 months during it's annual growth cycle.



You can see last year's growth here. Even though it seems to be growing quickly, the plant hasn't changed its overall size much over the 3 years I've kept it. Instead, the new growth draws water from the old "leaves," which shrink away like tiny raisins.

It was challenging to remember to take the picture at the same time of day or under consistent light conditions, hence the wide variation in brightness.
